Top of the Food Chain

Silas asked me today, in his thoughtful way, "Does everybody die?"

I answered with some standard mom reply, probably something like, "Yes, most people die when they're old and some people die when they're younger, but everyone dies."

Silas wanted further clarification: "Do even people who own grocery stores die?"

I guess maybe to him, control of the bagels and goat cheese and ice cream is the ultimate in power.
